Similarities Between 'Unbroken And Beware Of The Dog'

The main character from Unbroken by Laura Hillenbrand and the main character from “Beware of the Dog” by Roald Dahl face some similar obstacles and both stories have similar themes. The main theme of “Beware of the Dog” is that looks can be deceiving. The main theme of Unbroken is perseverance. However, these two stories can be tied together because Louie (from Unbroken) and Peter (from “Beware of the Dog”) both face a situation where they face an event happening that they believe is one way and turns out to be another. For instance, we can see in Unbroken, Louie believes that a rescue boat has come to save him and Phil and even though they were the Japanese he still has hope that they are there to help and he even thinks, “They are our friends”
